InfiniBand-/glasvezelkabel BlueOptics MC2210310-001-BO 1 m QSFP stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics MC2210310-001-BO is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with QSFP connectors on both ends, engineered for high-speed links in data center and enterprise networking environments. It follows MSA standards for QSFP to QSFP active optical cable assemblies and integrates optical transmitters and receivers in each connector to carry multi-mode optical signals. The cable is compatible with systems that support 40GBASE-SR4 signaling and is intended for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects between switches, routers, storage arrays and network interface hardware.

Advantages

This 1 m BlueOptics active optical cable provides a compact, plug-and-play solution for 40 Gbps interconnects using QSFP male connectors on both ends. The integrated transmitter and receiver modules simplify installation by removing the need for separate transceiver modules and fiber patch cords while maintaining signal integrity over multi-mode fiber. Compatibility with platforms that support the corresponding 40GBASE-SR4 protocol ensures predictable performance for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET applications up to 40 Gbps.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 40 Gbps links between QSFP-enabled switches and routers in data centers
• High-bandwidth connections to storage systems and server NICs supporting 40GBASE-SR4
• Upgrades or replacements where an active optical QSFP-to-QSFP cable is required

Key specifications

• Length: 1 meter
• Connector type: QSFP male to QSFP male
• Data rate: supports up to 40 Gbps per the 40GBASE-SR4 specification
• Optical type: active optical cable with integrated transmitters and receivers
• Fiber type: multi-mode optical transmission

How to use

Ensure both devices support QSFP connections and the 40GBASE-SR4 signaling before installation. Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment vendor, then insert the QSFP connectors firmly into the QSFP ports until they latch. Verify link status through the host devices' management interfaces. No external transceivers or patch cords are required; the cable carries signal conversion internally via its integrated optical modules.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress, maintain specified minimum bend radius for multi-mode fiber, and verify platform compatibility with 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP AOCs. Use in controlled data center environments and avoid exposure to moisture or contaminants.
